(...) This is a beautiful little ship. Excellent SNOT work, and I like how you used the Buy-onicle parts in an unusual manner. I especially like the fact that the canopy is hinged. LEGO seems to have decided that hinging canopies isn't important (...) (23 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Wow, Jeff! Love the alternate Y-wing design. The detail on the microfig ship is impressive, too. I don't like microfig scale, but I completely dig that one. Keep up the great work and display them proudly! Alexander (...) (23 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)

I love seeing unconvetional uses for unconventional pieces. This is one of the best examples of this I have seen yet for Bionicle bits.

Cool ship. To me it seems like it would be the rebel equivalent of the U2 spyplane or somethign. All your other alphabet ships are pretty cool as well. (23 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars)
